How to Stop a Sending Gmail Message - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

So, long story short i accidentally hit send on a very private email and did not notice i put in a different persons email.. long story short i shoved my phone off of wifi and turned off data to cause it to stay in outbox. HOW do i cancel this message or stop it from sending? Im not sure if deleting it will really stop it or not.

Does it still say that it is sending or that it has already been sent? If it is still in draft then you should be OK to delete it then turn data back on.

It was to late =/ I squirmed my way out of the situation though. Deleting it in the past has done nothing for me. It reached the Gmail sever to quick lol

When this happens you can kill your data connection and then clear data and cache for GMail

[Q] Help! All text messages gone!

So I went to bed last night, had my phone plugged in to my laptop charging and I got a text around midnight. it woke me up, I read it, put my phone back down and went to sleep. I just woke up and looked at my phone and the ONLY text message I have at all is now that text. All text before (thousands) are gone, deleted... I checked my crunchSMS and "messages" and there's just the one message in both. I'm using MYN's newest and everything else seems to be accounted for. Please let me know if there is any way to restore my texts (other than my backup, I got some important texts yesterday) Please let me know if you guys can think of anything.

You had just woken up and probably deleted them by accident. I'm sorry but I can't think of any way to recover them.

I don't think that's what happened... could someone that easily delete every text they had?

Menu | Delete All
Easily can happen when you are messing around with the phone right after waking up and not being completely awake.

I doubt you deleted them all by accident. I've had this happen to me twice now as well. Had you noticed the SMS program being sluggish lately? Both times it has happened to me I've had thousands upon thousands of SMS in the database and the app had slowed to a crawl. I think the app freaks out and corrupts the database or something which results in it just trashing the whole thing and recreating it from zero. Android already has an issue with the messaging app pulling up the wrong conversation/contact once in a while, for it to hose the whole database isn't much of a stretch from there lol.
The stock HTC messaging app doesn't even have a delete all option. You would have to go Menu -> Delete -> and then manually select each individual conversation in order to delete everything.

There's an SMS backup that syncs to GMail. The app is free in the market. I would use that next time.

This also happened to me like two days ago.
really quite lame...lost a lot of photos
The same thing has happened to me twice now. Thousands of messages gone. It happened today for no reason. I put my phone on silent while in an interview and when I got out I had one new text and all of the rest were gone. Total Bullsh!t!
I love deleting all of my texts, do it a few more times and you will feel free.

i use SMS Backup and Restore. I have it configured to do automatic backups of my messages once a week, so at the worst i will lose one week work of messages in the event something goes wrong.
SMS Backup+ I have it set to back em up every hour.

Google Voice

I was wondering if anyone else was having issues with the google voice app using their galaxy nexus on verizon..I am unable to send texts from the app. It just hangs at Sending.. with the little circle going around and around. It will stay at that screen for a few minutes then will say the message was canceled. I tried rebooting, uninstalling the app and nothing has fixed it. I also have tried it on 4g, 3g and Wifi. same result.

oh okay. maybe they are fixing the problem, but one platform at a time? idk
I'm so glad you posted this. I had the same issue! Even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Seems to be working better though now but had problems all afternoon and into this evening.
I'm on VZW as well.

I had the same issue tonight and I just tried texting myself from GV and the text took 6 minutes for me to receive it. Something is definitely wrong at the moment.
I was also having issues last night (~5-8pm Pacific) with the app. Uninstalled, re-installed, cleared data and cache of app, all sorts of stuff. Gave up and sent from the mobile voice website and it was fine. Hours later it was working a bit dodgy. I have found that the app is much more problematic than the website or a chrome extension.
it does not work for me at all. For example, to send a text message. When I say "send text message to.....Message...Hello" there is nothing in the "to" field, everything is in the "message" field. I've seen this problem mentioned on google forums, but no answers.

Gmail stuck on"sending"

I replied to an email using gmail app and now its stuck on "sending".
I tried a reboot but no luck. Any suggestions?

Remove the account and add it back?
Clear cache and data for Gmail app. I've had this happen a few times.

I've had this happen before as well, and sometimes I think it might be something on Google server side, like it can take longer than usual for them to send an acknowledgement of reception? Idk.
Sent from my calculator watch.
Force Close the app and reopening it also does the trick if you do not feel like clearing cache and the like. It will work for a few and be fine then go right back to doing it.
Yeah, I've gotten this on pretty much every Android device I've owned. Pretty common problem and I wish Google would fix it. I just force close, clear cache..then resend.
will this happen with the other email app that came with this phone?
And how do you clear the emails cache?

settings/apps/find Gmail click on it and you can clear cache from there
I've had this happen a couple times before too. The first time, I didn't even know about it until my sister mentioned she never got a reply for so and so email even though I clearly remembered replying to it a week before that. So I went into the app and looked at my outbox and there was about 7 or 8 emails stuck in there that couldn't be set.
Made me a bit mad to say the least. And a year later, we are still having this issue.

I only ever had that problem with stuck outbox when I had a battery saver program "juice defender" running. Works perfectly ever since I stopped using and uninstalled the battery saver app. I read in another thread that those apps do more harm than good.
+1 to clear cache and data
I have had this happen, in over a thousand or so sent emails, four times, it was the same day, and only on 3g trying to send photos as attachments for work.
This has never happened when on wifi. I want to clarify that I use both gmail and the samsung included email app (I like it better for multiple gmail account usage for a few reasons I wont go into here). The samsung app, though it takes longer to load emails (even on wifi) I just like the feel of it better. Gmail sending is usually instantaneous, both apps have been super stable for me, I have adjusted their settings to run to my ideals, which includes hourly pings.

Hey, can someone shed some light as to why Clear Cache button is greyed out in the Gmail application? All I have is Force close and Uninstall updates. Everything else is unavailable.
Thanks in advance.
I have had this problem recenlty, I had to remove my account from the phone and add it again. It even stopped downloading new emails....smh
I think it's google though not the phones

Sprint voice mail issues

Hey guys, I haven't seen anyone talking about this before, and if I hadn't seen it, I wouldn't believe it. My wife's phone is straight stock (I'm guessing fl24, or whatever the last ota was) unrooted firmware.
However we both have very different issues with our voicemail. Mine I'm not to concerned with, as its probably something I changed God knows where conflicting somehow.
Whenever she receives a voicemail she gets multiple copies, I'm talking hundreds of copies. I tested this by leaving a 3 second message that she then received 127 times.
Is anyone else seeing this, or is this possibly her phone going mental?
Just trying to get a take on this, see if it needs to be replaced or can be fixed here at home.
And to answer the obvious, yes - I cleared app data and cache.
No - I didn't delete and reinstall (unrooted remember?)
Thanks guys:beer:

Ok have her clear data then open the vvm app, go to menu and record a message doesnt matter what dead air is fine. Then send the message to [email protected] and wait a few mins til a return message comes in saying congratulations your account has been verified or something similar. Should fix it, it did when mine went haywire on aosp

Thank you, that fixed her issue so I figured I'd give it a shot with mine and no go.
For some reason it acts like it can't connect to verify my account, I get constant messages saying something about messages waiting to be sent. So far I've cleared data and cache, tried your suggestion, uninstalled and reinstalled, flashed a zip, and pushed the apk, no luck. I also tried prl and profile update thinking maybe the towers were not recognizing me, but that did nothing either.
I'm baffled LOL

With yours have you tried calling you vm (longpress 1 on dialpad) then listen and delete all the messages. Then turn off phone, call and leave a VM and turn it back on and see if it will provision. I had provisioning issues when there were messages on the network

Just called and I don't have any messages, so I shut down phone and powered back on, same deal. IDK wtf is going on LOL. Is there anything in the ##3282# menu that may have borked the vvm app?
I appreciate the help bro, this started as a minor annoyance but now its pissing me off LOL

Idk if theres anything in the data menu or not. You could always do ##786# > reset then when it boots ##72786# and reprovision the entire phone, just make sure you're as close to stock as possible, and before resetting go to about phone > status and write down your MIN incase you need to manually input it during the provisioning under ##72786# > edit.
Edit: you only need to write it down if the MIN 10-digit is different from your phone # sometimes its the same 10 digits and sometimes its entirely different.

Deleting emails from lock screen

Something weird has been happening lately and its not just from the latest update. When I delete an email from my lock screen(pull down > delete), they end up popping back up a few minutes later. Im not swiping or archiving, Im doing the same delete maneuver Im used to doing.
Anyone else experiencing living dead emails?

Yeah, its weird. Ill delete an email(swipe down>delete) and its gone from my screen. Then maybe 15 minutes later it pops back up again and I do the same thing. When I unlock my screen and open my Gmail, its still there, not deleted.
